#95 The Last Temptation of Christ (1988)

At this point there doesn't really seem to be much left to say about this one. If you don't feel it's blasphemous you probably see it as brilliant. If you feel it is blasphemous you probably didn't finish it. I will say this; Martin Scorsese speaks very, very fast. His commentary was almost too fast to keep up with. Easy on the caffeine there Marty.

One other thing I would like to mention; Willem Dafoe's brother performed my father's kidney transplant. I always thought that was kinda cool.﻿

About Me

One morning in 2009 I decided, live on the air, to watch AFI's 100 Greatest Movies of All Time. I took our listeners on a 2 and a half year journey with to get to number 1. By the time it was over I had given away LOTS of prizes by having trivia questions about whatever movie I had seen the weekend before. I also developed a love for the classics. Jimmy Stewart, Gregory Peck, Bette Davis and so on.
Here's the thing...
My girlfriend HATED the whole movie list experience so, naturally, I'm going to do it again.
This time, however, I found The 100 Greatest Movies Of The 80's so I think she might be a little more inclined to join me. So, here we go. I'm aiming for one movie a weekend and then trivia questions the week following so make sure your listening to me in the morning.
